Amey has been awarded a coveted spot on Translink’s Professional Services Framework, a significant four-year, £40 million programme dedicated to enhancing infrastructure across Northern Ireland.
As one of four appointed suppliers, Amey will deploy its industry-leading systems thinking approach to provide end-to-end engineering solutions across potential contracts secured under this framework. The scope of services to be delivered on behalf of Translink is extensive, including strategic site surveys, design for new infrastructure, civil and structural engineering expertise, line speed upgrades, and crucial rail network electrification throughout Northern Ireland.
This new framework appointment further solidifies Amey’s expanding presence in Northern Ireland and extends its long-standing partnership with the Department for Infrastructure (DfI), which dates back to 2005. The company recently announced several key strategic contract wins with the department, including a £30 million engineering services consultancy partner contract with its Rivers division, as well as a £35 million engineering services consultancy contract with its Transport and Road Asset Management (TRAM) branch.
The news also follows a successful period of framework appointments for Amey. The firm recently secured a place on the Network Rail Development and Design Partnership Framework (DDPF), through which it will deliver a range of infrastructure services. These include professional development, design, and technical support aimed at connecting people, businesses, and communities across the north of England.
Susan Evans, Rail Sector Director for Amey, expressed her delight at the appointment: “We are delighted to have been appointed to Translink’s Professional Services Framework. This appointment reinforces Amey’s commitment to supporting Northern Ireland’s ambition to deliver efficient, sustainable, and connected public transportation solutions. Leveraging our market-leading capabilities and expertise, we’re looking forward to supporting Translink in delivering high-quality infrastructure improvements that benefit communities across Northern Ireland.”
This latest win underscores Amey’s continued growth and its deepening role in supporting critical infrastructure development across various regions of the UK.
